It breaks away from older stereotypes of the tsar - whether as 'crazed tyrant' and 'evil genius', on the one hand, or as a 'great and wise statesman', on the other - to provide a more balanced picture. It examines the ways in which Ivan's policies contributed to the creation of Russia's distinctive system of unlimited monarchical rule.Ivan is best remembered for his reign of terror, the book pays due attention to the horrors of his executions, tortures and repressions, es 410 0$aProfiles in power (London, England) 607 $aRussia$xHistory$yIvan IV, 1533-1584 607 $aRussia$xKings and rulers$vBiography 676 $a947/.043/092 676 $a947.043092 700 $aPavlov$b Andrei.$01690604 701 $aPerrie$b Maureen$f1946-$01690605 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807679403321 996 $aIvan the terrible$94066388 997 $aUNINA
